Chapter 1097: Cooperating to build a city, Han Sui is shocked
Han Sui's words made the tent fall into a cold situation. It was really... Especially, this place was Fang Zhiwen's territory. Han Sui was a little scared when he thought about it. He glanced at the cold faces of the generals behind Fang Zhiwen, and some cold sweat broke out from behind Han Sui.
Ma Teng was also shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but feel worried about Han Sui. It was difficult for Han Sui to say this. Unexpectedly, Han Sui, who was always calm, was so impatient, but from this, it can be seen that Han Sui's attitude towards this matter.
Fang Zhiwen stared at Han Sui and suddenly grinned, "What is the reason why Wen Yue objected so much?"
Han Sui sighed in his heart and immediately smiled apologized: "General, don't blame me. This matter has a cause. Because the general and Shoucheng are sworn brothers. Therefore, he knows that Shoucheng has always been ambitions. If it is true as the general said, wouldn't it be contrary to Shoucheng's ambitions? It is natural that it is impossible."
"Ambition? Could it be that Shoucheng doesn't want to expand territory and make achievements for our great Han Dynasty?"
"Not exactly. Although Shoucheng also has this ambition, his ancestor Shoucheng was General Fubo Ma Yuan. Shoucheng has always been determined to restore the glory of his ancestors and is loyal to the Han Dynasty. But it is precisely because of this that Shoucheng cannot do what Zhang Wenyuan does?"
"Oh." Fang Zhiwen smiled. Although Han Sui's statement was a bit far-fetched, it was a reason, a reasonable reason.
"That's true," Ma Teng hurriedly continued and gave Han Sui a briefing: "The ancestors are known for their loyalty. As a descendant, I must never insult my reputation as my ancestor. Now I am loyal to the emperor of Chang'an, but the general admits that if I surrender to the general, I will be criticized by the world."
"Haha, I've had this concern, but I didn't say that the general was surrendered to my subordinates. I just asked Shoucheng if he was willing to cooperate. You two don't have to be so nervous. Even if I make such a suggestion, it's just an explanation, so you don't have to be too nervous."
Looking at Fang Zhiwen who was smiling and harmless, Han Sui and Ma Teng touched a cold sweat together. How could they not be nervous? Now Fang Zhiwen’s military god Daming is no match for the great man, and with Youzhou’s powerful strength, he is now on his territory, so if he is not nervous, he will be damned!
"It makes the adult laugh. The general is just anxious for a moment."
He waved his hand indifferently, watching Ma Teng wait for Ma Teng's response.
"How exactly is the cooperation that the general said? Can it be stated so that my brothers can consider it."
Ma Teng's words not only gave Han Sui face, but also left a way out for his possible rebuttal. This big man with a rough appearance is not rough at all!
Fang Zhiwen smiled indifferently and nodded, "Just let me know in detail, please look at the map. The role of Juyanhai on the Xianbei people is very important. Therefore, I mean that in this winter, occupy Juyanhai, in three or five months, Juyanhai will be able to build a big city, with abundant water and fertile land. It is just right for us to farm and live a farming life. Look at this Juyanhai, there is a narrow place between the two lakes in the north and south of Juyanhai, and the triangle belt between the two rivers. As long as we make good use of this terrain, we can build a city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."
Both Ma Teng and Han Sui's eyes lit up. This is indeed a great place for building a city. However, it is easy to defend the city like this, but it is also easy to be surrounded, especially since Juyanhai is hundreds of miles away from Huishui, which is surrounded by Hu cavalry, it is difficult for reinforcements to come up.
"General, defense is easy. But what about logistics? If the distance is so far, logistics will become a big problem."
"It was a problem at the beginning, but at the beginning, it was a fortress, a fortress specifically to attract the Hu tribes to attack. As long as you make full use of this fortress to attract the Hu tribes, and then encircle and annihilate the living forces that strangled the Hu tribes from the periphery, so that they cannot grazed and survive near the Juyan Sea. On the other hand, you can build a city along the Huishui River and build a city corridor to provide logistics for the Juyan Sea. In this way, from Juyan Sea to Huishui is a new Great Wall, which can protect Zhangye and Wuwei south of the Huishui River."
"What the general said about cooperation is..."
"I'll pay for the money, and Shoucheng will pay for the people. In the future, everyone will earn half of the income of this city. Also, our army can be stationed in the second supply, how about it?"
"This... it's reasonable to have two cents of urban income, but who is the main focus in urban management? Also, why did the general's troops station in Juyanhai?"
"Haha, east of Juyanhai and west of Jijing Pass, there is a vast space here. There are two desert Gobi during this period. Although it is not suitable for human survival, there are a large number of wild monsters and scattered Hu tribes. These are the goals of our army in the future. Also, I have just said that wherever there is Hu tribe, there will be my army. Therefore, I will continue to attack westward and northward, and Juyanhai will naturally become an important supply area."
Ma Teng and Han Sui looked at each other in surprise. When they were worried that Fang Zhiwen would like to see their acre of three-point land, Fang Zhiwen's eyes were actually looking at the vast world further north and west. In comparison, Ma Teng and Han Sui seemed very petty.
However, this is due to strength, or the vision leads to the gap in strength. Anyway, anyone can tell at a glance the level of the situation.
"Where is the management of the city?"
“How about we entrust a third party to manage it for the sake of fairness?”
"Third party?" Ma Teng and Han Sui's eyes widened. Fang Zhiwen's novel ideas were emerging one after another. Guo Jia was shocked by Fang Zhiwen's fooling the two of them, and his heart was so funny that his intestines were about to turn. He almost couldn't help but laugh.
Fang Zhiwen glanced at Guo Jia with a warning and said with a smile: "Yes, a third party, please ask Yiren to manage the city. Have you heard of the Iron Army?"
"I have heard that the famous Iron Army and the best among the Independence are now occupied by Yan County and Hanoi County."
"Yes, they just hired a third party to manage the city, and they themselves focused on fighting the war!"
"oh......."
"That's fine?"
Fang Zhiwen smiled with a hint: "Of course, we can sign some agreements with them with specific goals, such as how high the urban construction level should be, how strong the defense facilities should be, how much population growth will be, etc. More importantly, in the future, we must attract a large number of alien troops to do tasks, thereby reducing our own military investment. Do you understand this?"
"Gao! General's trick is so great. Using strange people to harass the Hu clan is indeed the most efficient way!" Ma Teng agreed with this idea with certainty. The implication was that he had agreed to the cooperation to be launched. In fact, no matter from that perspective, this cooperation is a great thing. Perhaps Fang Zhiwen will use this place to plan for Jiuquan and Zhangye in the future, but at least now this cooperation has greatly enhanced Ma Teng's strength.
However, Han Sui didn't think so. Ma Teng's strength increased, which does not mean that Han Sui's strength also increased. On the contrary, Ma Teng's strength increased, which means that Han Sui's strength decreased in disguise. Then the relationship between the two will change. Whoever is the master and who is the subordinate in the future, who is the brother and who is the younger brother or second, will a rift be created because of this? It would be even more terrible if Fang Zhiwen did this in itself contained this meaning!
There is no need to wait for the future. If Han Sui turned to stop this matter based on his strength, it would be enough to cause these two brothers and brothers to have conflicts. This Fang Zhiwen is really hateful! Terrible!
Han Sui, who was in a dilemma, was already a little distracted, and he didn't know that Guo Jia was catching the change in his face.
"Shoucheng, because there are a large number of aliens here in the future, it will be the most efficient to leave them to aliens to manage. Do you agree with this?"
"Well, that's true."
"Also, Yiren's management is very professional and efficient, and will not bring management costs to Shoucheng, as well as some unpredictable personnel conflicts, especially in a place thousands of miles away. Therefore, Shoucheng only needs to focus on the military part, which greatly reduces Shoucheng's investment."
“It’s true.”
"Haha, simply put, Shoucheng stationed an infantryman of no less than 50,000 people, or 30,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry in Juyanhai. Then, all the Hu tribes captured this time were transformed into urban residents, and then some craftsmen and artists and scholars could be transferred to come. If there is nothing, the manager can also be entrusted to invite or purchase them. I will bear the other city construction costs and materials. What I am talking about is the investment in the first year, and the subsequent investment will be invested with the profits of the city itself. If there is still a shortage, I will make up for it."
"What if it's not enough for a long time?"
"Haha, then I will keep making up for it. No matter what, if my Youzhou army can get a supply point here, the logistics transfer costs saved will be almost the same."
The more Ma Teng heard it, the more he became more moved, and he almost nodded and agreed immediately. However, seeing Han Sui's darker face, Ma Teng still resisted his impulse. In fact, Ma Teng did not think carefully about why Han Sui had a dark face. Could it be that he could not see the benefits of this? Or, he saw some serious threat hidden in it!?
In fact, Han Sui is so eager to cry now that he is watching Ma Teng enter the circle, but Han Sui can only watch. Even though he knows that this is a huge trap that splits Ma Teng’s relationship with him, Ma Teng will happily stretch his neck in, but he doesn’t even have to stop him!
Han Sui looked up at Fang Zhiwen, only to think that this smiling guy was really terrible. It was indeed worthy of being the name of a black demon. No wonder the Xianbei people changed their expressions when they heard this and ran away as soon as they saw it. Now, Han Sui also felt like he wanted to escape. Thinking of the fact that he had been excited to come and see if this famous general of the North was worthy of his name, Han Sui had the urge to plunge into the horse manure pile and suffocate himself to death.
